pick#HeatOfJuly Day 13: Hard to lose someone if you are convinced that #WeBelongTogether. Fats wrote the review for this one: “Joseph‘s story is both heartbreaking and inspiring. He was on a mission to get his dearest Sarah back and never was there a time that Joseph gave up. His heart was full of hope and courage. It‘s the story of a friendship that does not require words, and of the quiet courage inside all of us.” Link to full review ⬇️
Twelve yo Joseph lost his dad when the wagon wheel crushed him; his mom and 6 yo sister died of typhoid fever weeks before. Now all he has left is the family pony Sarah, who was taken by a shady horse trader across the state of Washington. Joseph must do what needs to be done.
pickAnd with this one, Dan Gemeinhart is two-for-two at making me cry. With a strong thread of family & friendship, this MG Western adventure is an all-around win. Loved Andrew Eiden's narration.
pickThe cover fooled me (historical fiction? really?), but the story wooed me from page 1. I laughed and cried. More than once.
